Overview

SFTR requires counterparties to report details of securities financing transactions to trade repositories, including detailed collateral information.

Collateral Data

Collateral reporting, including re-use, is frequently cited by practitioners as one of the hardest data sets to source reliably.

Identifiers

As with derivatives reporting, SFTR relies on UTIs and LEIs to identify transactions and entities.
